What Pressable Does

Agency WordPress Hosting

Built for agencies managing multiple client sites, Pressable gives you a centralized dashboard, granular collaborator permissions, staging environments, and free, unlimited white-glove migrations, so your team can manage more client sites with less overhead.

WooCommerce Hosting

Pressable is part of Automattic, the company behind WooCommerce. Every plan is ecommerce-ready by default, with auto-scaling for traffic spikes, daily backups with hourly database backups, and WordPress and WooCommerce experts available 24/7. You don’t need a specialized ecommerce tier, and a campaign that drives a traffic surge won’t trigger surprise charges.

Premium Site Plans

For mission-critical, high-traffic sites, Premium plans add dedicated vCPUs per site, vertical scaling to 100+ cores, custom PHP memory, white-glove onboarding, and a Jetpack Complete license. You get enterprise-level performance without signing an enterprise contract.

What Makes Pressable Different

100% Uptime SLA

Pressable backs its hosting with a 100% uptime SLA, supported by a geo-redundant, high-availability architecture with automatic failover.

Security Included on Every Plan

Every plan includes a web application firewall, malware scanning, hack recovery assistance, DDoS protection, free SSL certificates, and Jetpack Security. Pressable also runs a HackerOne bug bounty program to keep hardening the platform.

Built for Developers

Every plan includes SSH and SFTP access, WP-CLI, Git integration, staging and sandbox environments, a REST API, and granular collaborator permissions, so developers can deploy, test, and manage WordPress the way they already work.

WordPress-Only Focus, Backed by Automattic

Pressable is part of Automattic and runs on WP Cloud, infrastructure engineered specifically for WordPress. Everyone on the team, from engineering to support, works on WordPress and nothing else.

Fast, Expert Support

WordPress engineers staff our 24/7 live chat, with an average first response time under four minutes, an average resolution time under 10 minutes, and a 98% customer satisfaction rating. Every customer gets the same expert team, whatever their plan size.

AI-Native Hosting with Pressable MCP

Pressable MCP connects AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini directly to your hosting environment. Agencies and developers can audit site portfolios, triage error logs, restore backups, spin up staging environments, and manage plugins with simple prompts, using the AI tools they already have.

The Team Behind Pressable

Our Origin Story

In 2010, a group of friends in San Antonio, Texas founded a small tech company, originally called ZippyKid, with a single mission: let developers, designers, and business owners focus on building great WordPress sites instead of wrestling with servers. They accomplished this by providing managed WordPress hosting with fast, reliable infrastructure and knowledgeable, friendly support. The company was later rebranded as Pressable.

Joining Automattic

A few years after its founding, Pressable was acquired by Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Jetpack, and more. This allowed the team to rebuild the platform’s architecture from the ground up on WP Cloud, Automattic’s proprietary WordPress-optimized infrastructure. Today, Pressable operates as an independent business unit within Automattic, with a fully distributed global team.

Leadership and Team

Pressable is led by General Manager Vik Patel, with a fully remote, globally distributed team. Since the beginning, Pressable’s greatest asset has been its people: WordPress experts who love what they do, and it shows in our product and in every customer interaction.

Customers can also manage all of this from their AI assistant with Pressable MCP.
